Sandro, a non-binary individual from the impoverished Comuna 13 district of Medellin, Colombia, still grapples with the aftermath of their brother’s tragic death. Juan, Sandro’s sole friend and confidant, was killed for his refusal to join a local gang. This traumatic event led Sandro down a path of vengeance and criminal activities, ultimately resulting in their incarceration. While in prison, Sandro underwent a profound transformation and decided to redeem themselves through acts of kindness and artistic expression. They resumed writing HipHop lyrics, a skill passed down from their late brother. Sandro’s lyrics serve as a means of supporting the LGBTQ+ community in Medellin and as a tribute to their brother, whose energy they believe played a pivotal role in guiding them back onto the right path. We’ll witness Sandro’s journey of self-discovery and growth. Their attempts to move on with their life, amplified by their unique circumstances, will resonate with viewers on a universal level. While Sandro’s metamorphosis may not be fully realised during the filming process, their experiences will offer valuable insights into the obstacles that hinder the pursuit of a meaningful and fulfilling life.
